What were the religions of Robert Louis Stevenson and Mary Shelley? I’ve looked online but to no avail, unless I’ve missed it. It’s for an English essay and I want to refer to the religions of the authors in my answer. Thanks.
I can’t find anything about Shelley, but I know that Stevenson rejected his parents’ Christianity; I suppose you’d call him either an agnostic or an atheist.
Stevenson’s parents were both devout and serious Presbyterians.
while
Mary’s folks were rather irreligious
